Hmm; well, that seems to decide things …
I’ll confess, here, that getting the quizzes cancelled is a pain, coming when it has; – I’ll confess that I am thinking of seeing if I can explore Ebay, to see id I can sell prepared quizzes – and, just as importantly, the spreadsheet file that has been the backbone and foundation of them – online.
It’s also bad because today saw the release of the open source office suite, NeoOffice 3.0; - something I’ve looking forward, for a while.
At least a week, certainly!
I know I’ve been tinkering with version 3 of OpenOffice.org, but I’ll confess I’ve found it still a touch clunky in comparison with NeoOffice; - even though NeoOffice is, ultimately, based on OpenOffice code.
Blowed if I know how they do it, you’d have to ask someone a touch more familiar with coding than me.
Mind you, that is a benefit, in one sense. It means that NeoOffice has finally managed to at least catch up with the ⌥ (alt) + the various cursor keys, and the backspace (⇤) key, to navigate entire words. Handy, from where I’m sitting. It means I can navigate a document a lot more easily. About the only minor flaw is that neither suite allows the use of the combination of Shift + Alt + the left cursor key, or backspace, to select words, within a given line; – something I’m assuming will be available in the next update.
Which will probably be a while, given I only downloaded the disk image, today …

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
